That computer you use everyday, it’ll never get to ride Thunder Road at Carowinds. It will never get to marvel at the huge naturalness of the Natural Bridge. Nope, it’s stuck there day after day. Working for the man.
Laptops have all the fun, hanging out in Coffee Shops all day. Surfing the net from the living room sofa. Chilling on your lap on a park bench. Unplugged, wireless and free to roam. You can work from anywhere on the planet.
Eventually, you won’t even have to work. You can kick back in your backyard, suspended between 2 trees, on your hammock. Your computer will do the work for you. Except in the future they will not be called computers and there will be no vacation.

Congratulation to Mr. Rob Venditti for the great news about his book “The Surrogates“.

Go Stepplejack!

You know something is going on when your dentist ask if you heard about that comic book character “Captain America” dieing. In all, I heard it from 4 different people in the same day. None of them were comic book fans. It was a strange.

It’s been a pretty deadly time for Super Heroes over the last few years. I can’t help but think that eventually this “crying wolf” game will backfire on the entire industry. Yes someone died, yes it’s vital to the plot and yes they will return to kick buttox again. With a gritter tone, and maybe a new costume.

Celebrate the death of one of Comic Book’s great icons by downloading a larger version of the above illustration for your desktop!

Pictures of the Bot Bash are up for your enjoyment.

Wowie! Finished Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters recently. It’s on PSP and was highly enjoyable, although it went by way fast. I’m working my way through the second time, trying to save up bolts to get the ultimate Ryno gun. R&C is for sure my favorite game series and it holds up very well on the small screen. Even when it’s done by a different game company, High Impact Games. The coolest parts have to be the collectable cutomizable armor, lazer gun and the slide boots (they’re back). Oh, and you get to fly a giant Clank through space. Man I wish it wasn’t so short.
